Aruba Scuba Diving Vacations

Worst experience at a Riu. Key card to our room did not work after an hour of back and forth our key card finally let us in. The TV is not a smart TV. It does not connect to internet. Can not access YouTube or Netflix. Requested for birthday balloons, no setup was done for my finances birthday. Was requested multiple times.

The Divi Phoenix resort was beautiful! The rooms in my suite were spacious and the views amazing! I loved having 2 balconies and even a desk for my husband to work when he had to! The only negative is that the room had a coffee maker but no coffee or tea provided, and there were no decently priced grocery stores/convenience stores nearby. Would have to take a taxi, which was pretty expensive. So, plan ahead, if you want your own snacks/drinks for the room! The beach was amazing and we were walking distance to so many great restaurants! It took us two days to realize it though! The staff were all great and the happy hours were nicely spread out between bars! We had a fabulous time!

I can't say enough good things about Manchebo. The staff is very helpful, welcoming and friendly. The property and rooms are very clean. The restaurant and bar/lunch areas are open to the environment with nice breezes and great views of the beach. The beach itself is excellent with clean white sand, enough thatch umbrellas for all the guests and is was not at all crowded during our end of June stay. Food and drink service on the beach is also excellent. Swimming is good too with aqua water and sandy bottom. The water does get deep quick so it may not be ideal for little kids.

It went great the service was exceptional I love everything about this place. My favorite was coming down getting my Starbucks coffee and taking the boat to flamingo island every morning

All the staff were terrific EXCEPT the housekeeper. The floors were FILTHY. My last 2 days 6/23/26 & 6/24/26 -my bed was not made, no replacement of bath towels, kitchen towels for drying, hand towels, AND bath mats to step on. * I didn't call the desk, as I thought there might be a staffing issue for a day. On 6/24 I didn't get back to my suite until 9pm and found my bed unmade again, I had to reuse a washcloth, there was no bath mat towel. I was given a suite because I am disabiled especially with my back, legs and feet. The shuttle drivers were awesome and used a step for me to get on & off.
